']The ceffy doesnt have a bov

it has an external venting wastegate. sure its not legal but its set up like that for track use. it sounds nothing like a bov or flutter ffs

It was hardly on boost, we (people around Mikey's car) heard it as it was leaving the complex...

hardly on boost = lies

its needs to be on or close to full boost for the gate to open or it doesnt work.

Adrian... my honest opinion is absolute shit all... not due to sau but due to the way the event was organised by cabin in some areas, ill be emailing jason fro andra this week and il pm you a copy

Im with you on this tj, the event wasnt organised very well, Get to the gates at dead on 12 and they hadnt open yet, had to wait for a good 15 to 20mines then there was ahold up took about another 20-30mins to get inside, *i heard that some clubs money didnt go through and they had to pay again i belived this inc sauwa*

anywayz i get to the gate tell the person who i am, and she just give me tickets and sends me off, unlike last yr were they gave u a map and told u where each car club was, this yr i had no idea where anyone was. i couldnt find antilag so i was force to park my car else where and i only found sauwa cuz i look where the RH9 GTR was.

Also there was no supercruise :) that was something which i really like about dc last yr, too bad it wasnt there this year.

I think last year it was run much better, didnt like the classes that much but hay it can only get better from here :)

I think overall the event was bigger and better, but I agree there is alot to still improve on, including club setups, speed of entry and scrutineering. I get to see things from the organisers point of view, and trust me we're working our asses off, but with better organisation things would have been much better.

Please feel free to provide me or TJ some feedback, and then we can pass it on to the organisers to make sure next year is even better.

Cheers

Yes it did Glen proving HP means very little.Steve Lee puts together a mighty engine so i cant wait to see this GTS on drag rubber.

The one thing ive seen working with trev cars is how little it takes to run fast like the white L34 Torana(Full street trim etc) at last fast friday, ran 10.9 on treaded tyres with 383rwhp but was over a very broad band.

The Hyperdrive 180SX that competed at Combat has been tickled and put-down 477.7hp at the treads this morning. Shame we didnt get time to do that before combat as I am sure it would have slipped into the 10's for sure. It was a mission and a half getting the RB25 box in there - didnt even know if that was going to work out until the night before!

The point I am getting to is that in terms of 'RESPECT' here comes another Jap Rice Rocket that can idle in traffic and throw a 10sec 1/4 down. They will start learning there's more to life than pushrods!

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
